erebellar ataxia is a failure in muscular coordination that re C sults from a slow, progressive deterioration of neurons in the cerebellum. An estimated 150,000 people are affected by the he reditary ataxias and related disorders in the United States. At present, there is no known cure. In an experimental treatment aimed at reconstructing the damaged pathway through exog enous neuronal supplementation, genetically ataxic mice have been used for intracerebral grafting of genetically healthy cerebellar neuroblasts, and evidence has been obtained for graft-induced en hancement of behavioral...
